The first Snow

 

Here it is, the first snow

Silently falling to the ground

 

Taking sorrows, secrets

Words never spoken aloud

For a deep winters’ sleep

 

Cleaning our mourning’s

Taking the colour, the feelings out of things

Listen to the silent breath

Calming a turbulent earth

 

All of a sudden, nature coming to a halt

Slowing its pace and stopping

To breath out

 

Regaining its deep connection to mother earth

A warm blanket covering its surface

Muffling all sounds

 

There is time for spring, when we will wake up again

We will awaken to take a new breath, to a new world

There is always time to start all over again

Rest dear friend, rest, until you may awaken again
